Low-profile dimensions (5GL)

The 5GL (low profile) meets users’ needs for operating in low vineyards, low orchards, or glass houses due to its low-profile shape. Relative to the ground, the tractor comes with the lowest possible height to hood, to operator’s seat, and to rear fenders to avoid interference with low-hanging crops or branches.

The 5GL compactness offers the right envelope and a low center of gravity; ideal for working in hilly and height-restricted conditions.

John Deere valuePerformance: Supported by the low-profile shape, the dimensions of the 5GL Series meet operators’ needs without the need of further modifications. This solution allows the tractor to operate in low vineyards, low orchards, or glass houses without the risk of damaging crops or low hanging branches.

Effortless serviceability

Effortless serviceability

Under the umbrella of the internal benchmarking activities, JDWM Customer Support performed a serviceability study with the John Deere 5085GF Series.

The narrow width of the 5GV Series and the low height of the 5GL Series require a compact engine solution. The compact 3.2-L (0.85 gal.) engine supports the envelope of the 5GL Series going underneath pergola vineyards and the 5GV Series entering super narrow vineyards.

Performance - made to measure

The engine ensures a high productivity under manifold working conditions. With a torque rise of 40 percent of the 5075G Specialty Series, 30 percent of the 5085G Specialty Series and 32 percent of the 5100GN/GF, the engine ensures the appropriate performance for versatile operations.

Less maintenance

Service intervals for the engine have increased by 100 percent from 250 hours to 500 hours. This decreases maintenance costs and increases time in the field.

John Deere value:Performance: The powerful Stage III engines support the narrow and low machine envelope of the new 5G Specialty Series and offer a high torque rise which provide the right dimensions and a high performance.

Cost of operation and Uptime: With an increased engine service interval the customer is able to reduce maintenance cost while spending more time in the field.

Constant hydraulic performance

The hydraulic system of the John Deere 5100GF has been tested in hydraulic test bench with engineering support in order to prove the outstanding hydraulic performance of the 5G Specialty Series. Usually, as the pressure at the selective control valve (SCV) increases, the hydraulic performance (L/min) decreases.

The following table shows the measured flow loss at various pressure points and clearly proves that the 5G Specialty Series provide a constant hydraulic flow even at high pressure points:

Maximum flow rate

Fuel consumption (g/kW/h)

288,9

The high constant power range of 400 rpm, torque reserve of 41.5 percent, and the low fuel consumption during PTO applications prove that specialty users can rely on a strong PTO performance.

The number of horsepower provided by the engine to the PTO-shaft is reduced through the transmission. The smaller the horsepower loss from the engine to the PTO, the higher the efficiency of the transmission. The following values measured at the PTO shaft prove that the John Deere 5G Specialty Series provides a high transmission efficiency and therefore real horsepower needed for the high amount of PTO applications a specialty producer is performing throughout the year:

John Deere value Performance and Cost of operation: Versatile PTO options which are designed to deliver outstanding power to PTO driven implements in the field - high constant power range, high torque reserve, low fuel consumption and a low power loss.
